How Did TNT Air That Crazy Hot ‘Good Behavior’ Sex Scene On TV?

I’ve seen a sex scene or two in my day. But it takes something pretty remarkable for me to have one of those eye-bulging, jaw-dropping, face-blushing moments. That this occurred on a show that aired on TNT was an even bigger surprise.

It didn’t take long into my binge-watch of Good Behavior season 1, to catch up for the season 2 premiere Sunday night on TNT, to get hooked. The show about a woman named Letty (Michelle Dockery), an addict and single mom who turns to drinking, drugs, sex, and a whole bunch of stealing for her thrills, is a lot of fun and a great escape, while remaining genuinely human throughout.

But when this con woman meets a hitman (Javier, played by Juan Diego Botto) it takes no time for the sparks to fly. The two have a handful of hookups throughout the 10-episode season, but it was a different, um, “handful” if you will, that really got my attention.

Spoiler alert, NSFW alert, and risk of getting turned on alert.

Without giving too much away, Letty and Javier reunite in a hotel room in episode 10, after some negative feelings between the two and a brief time apart and. Letty tries to get him in the mood, but Javier wants nothing to do with her and rejects her advances by repeatedly throwing her hands off his body and removing his hands from her body as she places them in different spots…until she’s got his hand around her neck. He throws her up against the wall and they go at it, in one of the hottest hate-sex scenes ever.

But the real jaw-dropper here is that, after Javier spins her around so her back is to his body, he unzips her dress and removes her undergarments. He then proceeds to lick his right index and middle fingers, and reaches down the front of her dress (which is just bunched around her hips at this point), much to her enjoyment.

As the scene goes on, it’s out of frame, but he uses his free hand to pull down his pants, and holy moly they totally do it up against the wall. And it’s not just super hot (but it is super hot). This is a major moment and a real intersection for these two at this point in the show. It should be noted that this is reflected by the gorgeous and truly masterful cinematography as the camera swirls around them, and the absence of music in the background, so as not to mingle with this momentous occasion for Letty and Javier.

You see, they’ve each been keeping a major secret from the other. At first, this only adds to the passion of the scene. But once the hotness ends, things get much more awkward and complicated for the duo. Still, after a viewing it will take you a second or so to cool off, before the show gets really real, and the stakes are higher than ever.

The good news though? There is a Javier butt shot just before he pulls up his pants. Thank you, Good Behavior. You sure know how to get us to watch the new season.

Good Behavior season 1 is available on Hulu now, and season 2 begins this Sunday night at 10/9c on TNT.
